Micro ATX board for 10th and 11th Gen Intel LGA 1200 CPUs with DDR4 up to 128 GB, 2.5 Gbps LAN, WiFi 6E and dual M.2 slots
This Micro ATX motherboard uses the LGA 1200 socket and the Intel B560 chipset. It accepts 10th and 11th Generation Intel Core processors along with Pentium Gold and Celeron models. Onboard video output works only with CPUs that include integrated graphics.
Four 288-pin slots support DDR4 up to 128 GB in dual-channel mode. With an 11th Generation CPU the board reaches 3200 MT/s by JEDEC and can overclock beyond 5066 MT/s in a 1DPC 1R configuration. The primary PCIe 4.0 x16 slot and the first M.2 slot connect directly to the CPU; the second M.2 slot and the PCIe 3.0 x16 slot share bandwidth and require BIOS adjustment for simultaneous use.
A Realtek RTL8125B controller provides 2.5 Gbps wired Ethernet while the Intel WiFi 6E AX210 module adds 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax wireless. Audio is handled by a Realtek ALC897 codec delivering 7.1 channels. Six SATA 6Gb/s ports and two M.2 Key M slots complete the storage options.

With an 11th Gen processor the board supports DDR4 up to 3200 MHz by JEDEC, while a 10th Gen CPU limits JEDEC support to 2933 MHz.
The Realtek RTL8125B controller provides a 2.5 Gbps wired link, so throughput can exceed 1 Gbps when your router, switch and cabling also support 2.5 GbE.
The M2_1 slot connects through the CPU and delivers PCIe 4.0 x4 bandwidth, giving up to roughly 8 GB/s theoretical throughput for a compatible drive.
